Six scenes narrating the fuss caused by a man's progression from minor cold to supposed major illness and then sudden recovery. The man's initial plea for nursing with his cold leads onto the summoning of a doctor and procurement of an abundance of potions. The terminal illness which seems to develop throws the houshold into grief-stricken turmoil and the doctors into confusion. The patients miraculous recovery naturally surprises everyone. Above the scenes is a skeleton emerging from a doctors' hat holding a cane and medicine bottle

A doctor and nurse prescribing new medicines for their patient; representing Britain under a new government. The doctor (Peel) holding a medicine bottle labelled: "New tariff" says: "Come take it off like a man! Its the only remedy for your complaint, I have mixed you something very nice to wash it down." The nurse (Wellington) adds: "Come Johnny there's no use making wry faces, you know you must swallow it." John Bull holding a cup inscribed: "Income tax" retorts: "It's a great deal nastier than Dr. Russell's physic." Lying discarded on the floor are a bottle of medicine labelled; "Russell purge" and a container inscribed: "Barings pills."

Abstract:
"The interior of an apothecary's room: jars on shelves; a counter with drawers, pestle and mortar, flasks, &c. A bust of Galen stands on the lintel of the door (right). An alarmed undergraduate in cap and gown stands clasping his stomach. The doctor faces him triumphantly, with raised arms and holding a pill-box. His man, who wears an apron, walks off with a large box inscribed 'Anti-Fibbibus'. The (prose) inscription below the title relates that a 'College Wag' called on a 'travelling Empiric' and asked to be cured of a bad memory, and a habit of lying. He is cured by the 'gilded pill called - Pillula Memoria - Anti Fibbibus!!' The youth complains that he is poisoned with Asafœtida, the doctor answers that he speaks the truth and will never forget the medicine, so is cured."--British Museum online catalogue
